A materialist perspective on international relations and a rational reflection on the expression of

Mondo History Updated on 2024-02-01

As an active follower of domestic and foreign news, it is not difficult for us to find that the mood of the Chinese people is very easily provoked by the outside world in some specific events. When it comes to the United States, there are some gunpowder topics that spark heated discussions on social platforms, and sometimes even turn into a war of words. Behind this phenomenon of emotional provocation, it is worth pondering.

The United States plays a multiplier role in the minds of the Chinese people: as a representative of the developed countries of the West, it is regarded as a symbol of advanced civilization;As a global political and economic power, it has enormous influence;As a cultural export powerhouse, its films and cultural products are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. At the same time, however, in the minds of some Chinese people, the United States has been portrayed as a hegemonist, a cultural exporter, and a representative of interference in the internal affairs of other countries. This complex image produces psychological ambivalence and cognitive inconsistency, which makes the expression of American emotions more extreme.

As a country with a long history and profound cultural heritage, China's acceptance and recognition of foreign culture and values are often subject to the influence of cultural psychology. Influenced by traditional culture, Chinese people tend to be cautious about foreign cultures, especially those from Western countries. Rejection of the United States stems in part from a sense of preservation of native culture. On the other hand, some perceptions of the United States are also shaped by historical events, such as a series of events during World War II. These different cultural psychology have shaped the complex feelings of Chinese people towards the United States, so that xenophobia can be stimulated in specific events.

Human behavior is often motivated by the pursuit of profit and the avoidance of harm. In international relations, the behavior of individuals or states is no exception. Hatred of the United States is partly due to the perception that the United States is infringing on China's interests and questioning the export of American culture. Some take the opportunity to vent their frustration, while others use it as a means of demonstrating patriotism and self-worth. At the same time, for the Chinese people, events such as diplomacy and cultural export are not directly related to individual interests, but due to the influence of information dissemination and social networking, individuals are often affected by external emotional fluctuations, which in turn exacerbates the spread of xenophobia.

At present, social networking, as the main channel for information dissemination, plays a vital role in the spread of Chinese people's emotions. Some inflammatory remarks or conflict incidents are often frantically frantically and commented on on social **, thus inspiring more people's emotional resonance and antagonism. In the era of information, various views and information are intertwined and agitated on social networking, and the conflict and collision of different opinions have become the norm, which also promotes the catharsis and spread of xenophobia. As a double-edged sword, social networking facilitates the dissemination of information and may also amplify mood swings.

Looking at the United States from a materialist perspective, we can analyze various phenomena in international relations in a more objective and rational way. An objective and rational view of international relations can help us to gain a deeper understanding of the complexity and diversity of the world, so that we can better respond to external challenges. At the same time, for the emotional expression of Chinese people, the materialist attitude can make us more clearly understand the true meaning and value of emotional expression, and give emotional expression a more rational and objective dimension. Such an attitude will not only help to enhance the cultural literacy of the Chinese people, but also help promote international exchanges and cooperation, so as to break the spread and expansion of certain negative emotions and call for a more rational and objective view of the United States and international affairs.

Through the above questions, we can see that the generation of xenophobic emotions stems from complex cultural psychology and profit drives, and is rapidly spread by the influence of social **. Therefore, when we face external challenges and international relations, we need to look at and deal with our emotions and thoughts more rationally and objectively, so as to better adapt to the pluralistic world.
